--= What's a DataPack? What's a Resource Pack? What's the differrence? =-- Datapack Datapacks are server side and only modify the world. They function like upgraded one command blocks, with more features and better optimization. To install a datapack you put it into the world's files; <world>/datpacks or in 1.16 you're able to add DataPacks during the creation of the world. Once the datapack is in the world nobody else needs to install it.

Resourcepack Resourcepacks are client side and modify things like Textures, Models, Languages, Sound, and things like that. Resourcepacks are installed per person in %appdata%/.minecraft/resourcepacks

What's the difference? ... compare them yourself
